Up and down the puppies' hair 
Fleas and ticks jump everywhere 
'Cause of original sin 

Down the hill fell Jack and Jill 
And you came tumbling after 
'Cause of original sin 

Rip away the tears 
Drink a hope for happy years 
And you may find 
lifetime's passed you by 

What would you say 
If you a monkey on a string 
If you a doggie on a chain 
What would you say 

I was there when the bear 
Ate his head, thought it was a candy 
Everyone goes in the end 

Knock knock on the door 
Who's it for, nobody in here 
Look in the mirror my friend 

I don't understand at best 
I cannot speak for all the rest 
In the morning rise a lifetime's passed me by 

What would you say 
(don't' drop the big one) 
If you a monkey on a string 
(Don't cut my life line) 
If you a doggie on a chain 
(Don't bite the mailman) 
What would you say 

Every dog has it's day every day has it's way 
Of being forgotten- "Mom it's my birthday" 

What would you say 
(don't' drop the big one) 
If you a monkey on a string 
(Don't cut my life line) 
If you a doggie on a chain 
(Don't bite the mailman) 
What would you say
